Squad purge quickens at ASSE as Miladinović departs, Nadé still pending
With just fifteen days left before the transfer window closes, ASSE is speeding up its squad clean‑out, confirming Igor Miladinović’s loan to Partizan Belgrade while Mickaël Nadé remains in limbo, highlighting a stark contrast between confirmed exits and pending decisions.
Outgoing players
Après Igor Miladinović, several players could quickly leave the Forez‑based club. Miladinović, who arrived in 2024, struggled for minutes at the Verts and has now joined Partizan Belgrade on a loan with an option to buy that runs until the end of the 2026‑2027 season.
Le premier départ is now official, but Mickaël Nadé is still awaiting a move. According to the Stephanois market report, the defender could be transferred to Dubai United and then loaned to Rodina Moscow, although no contract has been signed yet.
Également, Ebenezer Annan is being pushed toward an exit. The Ghanaian has a concrete lead in Romania, with Rapid Bucharest and ASSE reportedly reaching a verbal agreement for a loan that includes an option to purchase, meaning Annan should head to Romania.
Djylian N’Guessan, who does not wish to extend his contract that expires in a year, is training apart from the squad. Aïmen Moueffek’s situation has become more complex after Erzurumspor recruited Elisha Owusu, while Lucas Stassin is courted by Benfica and Hull City, though no deal has been mentioned; his possible departure will dictate the arrival of a new striker.
In the opposite direction, ASSE would ask more than €10 million for Augustine Boakye, with interest from Anderlecht, Wrexham and Norwich. Meanwhile, Elyes Dhaoui, André Zibi and Etienne Mendy are expected to bolster the youth teams, and the club still prioritises signing a left‑back.
The juxtaposition of confirmed exits and lingering negotiations shows that ASSE’s squad reduction is accelerating, yet the final shape of the roster will only become clear once the remaining dossiers are resolved.
